Difference between milt and spawn
Explanation:
- Spawn: Spawning implies that an animal, such as a sponge, giant clam, or fish, simply spews out its eggs, which will meet sperm meet more or less by chance. It’s seen in aquatic animals; the word is less often or rarely used for reproduction on land.
- Milt: A well known example is the way salmon spawn. They swim from the sea upriver to the shallow streams where they were born. Here, they dig out a little depression in the gravel of the substrate, and then with convulsive shudders, the female spawns—sheds her eggs into that depression. The male swims in next and sheds his sperm on top of them; his release of sperm is called milting. In noun form, the eggs themselves are called the spawn and the sperm are called the milt.
- In the marine environment, spawning animals commonly just release their eggs or sperm into the water, not into a nest; even sessile animals such as marine clams and sponges do this and obviously don’t have the motility to built a nest.
